Privacy Policy

This policy explains how [DAT LIMITED] ("we", "us") collects and uses your personal data on Kasuwa, in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023.

1. What we collect

• Account details: your name, email address, phone number and password (stored securely, never in plain text).
• Content you post: ad titles, descriptions, prices, locations and photos.
• Activity: ads you report or save, and when you accepted our Terms.
• Basic technical data such as device and browser information, used to keep the site secure.

2. Why we use it

• To create your account and let you post and manage ads.
• To let buyers and sellers contact each other.
• To keep Kasuwa safe: preventing fraud, handling reports, and enforcing our rules.
• To meet legal obligations.

3. What other people can see

Anyone can see your ads, your display name and the photos you upload. Your phone number is shown only to people who are logged in and click "Show contact" on your ad.

4. Who we share data with

We use trusted service providers to run Kasuwa, including database and file hosting (Supabase), website hosting (Vercel), and email delivery. They process data only to provide their services. We may disclose information to authorities where the law requires it. We do not sell your personal data.

5. How long we keep it

We keep your data while your account is active. If you delete an ad it is removed from the site. You can ask us to delete your account and personal data, except where we must keep records by law or to resolve disputes.

6. Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, to object to certain uses, or to withdraw consent. Contact us using the details below. You may also complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.

7. Security

We use access controls and encrypted connections to protect your data, but no online service is completely secure. Choose a strong password and do not share it.

8. Children

Kasuwa is for people aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

9. Changes and contact

We may update this policy and will change the date above when we do. Questions: [abediamondayo@gmail.com]
